NOTE: The JCSPhone database, used in some of the Area Code/Extension distance and proximity functions,
is NOT included with the subscription to the JCSZip database, developers version, and must be licensed separately. Click for details on the JCSPhone database.

What does $.70/day (about the price of a cup of coffee) buy these days?

The JCSZip Access 97 database and the logic supporting it.(All the data from this site)

NEW! our zip and area code conversion programwritten in Access and Visual Basic for Applications.(If you have Access 97, keep your Cities, States, Counties,Zips, and Area Codes up to date)

NEW! Access based functions which implement or exceedthe functions on this web server with their database
already prepared to run on personal PCs,or NETWORKED FROM A SERVER.
(If you have Access 97, duplicate or exceedthe capabilities of these web pages on your local PC, and/or local area network).

A reasonable amount of our technical support timeto ensure you can successfully install the components

We use, as a basis for our database, the United States Post Office (USPS) "City/State" File. We have purchased a subscription to their service, and purchased the ability to remarket the data
to our customers, after we have formatted the information, and added our value added fields for Latitude, Longitude, (both used for distance calculations), area codes, and time zones (5% of the time zones (the tough ones) temporarily not available).

Because the USPS file on which we base our database is only available
as an annual subscription, we offer the same to our customers. Just as our
subscription with the USPS expires at the end of one year, and must be
renewed at the then prevailing rates, our subscriptions
with our customers will, too.

We receive updates from the USPS each month, and we apply appropriate
changes to our value added data.

The USPS requires that we apply their changes within 105 days of receipt, and our customers must do the same.

Our database is implemented as an ACCESS database, and
the logic to access the system, calculate distances, and display
results are contained in the ACCESS database, and/or in the ASP
pages supporting our web site, www.jcsm.com. If the ACCESS
option is not desirable to the subscriber, the ACCESS information
can be exported to comma delimited files, and reimplemented by
subscriber personnel. Probably most easily implemented would be those
who use Visual Basic, or similar systems, and those who use Microsoft
based server systems. Of note, we supply all logic in source code form,
and the customer personnel will not find portions of logic hidden from them,
such that they will be locked to Jay Computer Services if they should want
to change to another data source in the future.
